Fringe - most definitely NOT “The X-Files”

By Erika Blake . Multipleverses.com Writer

The X-Files” remains as my number 1 all time favorite TV show so when I heard about FRINGE being a show about FBI agents tracking paranormalish stories, I initially was ticked off that FOX was simply regurgitating a new show that would be a flashier version of their classic series THE X-FILES.

I just got the opportunity to watch the extended trailer for the show (view it yourself below) and found myself salivating for it to begin. The premise comes head to head with my favorite medical/science/mystery/thriller writers in fiction - Michael Crichton, Tess Gerritsen, and Robin Cook. The series is about an FBI team hunting down mad scientists and their experiments that have gotten out of control.

Ana Torv already seems engaging - she must be from the same part of Australia as Cate Blanchett, they have the same accent. I’m not sold on Joshua Jackson yet, I’ll have to watch the Pilot before the show can convince me that he’s leading man material.

Be prepared to scream at your scream that you want to see more. Click to watch the extended trailer!
